splinter

Lyrics

[Verse 1] On a cold autumn day in a place far away There's a house that I knew where the grass never grew There's a story I tell to my friends and myself There was nothing to do but be anxious and blue [Chorus] So where did everyone go? 'Cause I'm falling asleep all alone I swear I'll need a miracle, just to make an escape on my own When everything is falling apart, there's a splinter of you in my heart I guess I'm just a kid in the dark still afraid of the shapes in the yard This house still breaks my heart [Verse 2] When my brothers moved out and my dad sold the couch It was harder to stay when the dog passed away Now they're tearing down the walls and I still forget to call Mother couldn't stop by without starting to cry [Chorus] So where did everyone go? 'Cause I'm falling asleep all alone I swear I'll need a miracle, just to make an escape on my own When everything is falling apart, there's a splinter of you in my heart I guess I'm just a kid in the dark still afraid of the shapes in the yard This house still breaks my heart
